Match Thread Everton v Newcastle - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[davek]

Bruce has been telling them to do what Klopp has told his Liverpool players: target their best player and injure him.

James and Richy the only ones looking decisive. Docuoure Sigurdsson Iwobi Coleman far too ponderous.

Was 3 or 4 occasions there again where James has found a position in between def and mid or moved into space there and our players don’t find him as they are too slow in control and in thought, and too risk averse in possession to try the pass. 3 or 4 moments with James on the ball in that area is likely at least a couple of strong chances we are missing out on.

Still more quality needed in this team behind him, new signings and for those to stay....more time under Carlo to improve them.

It doesn’t take that much though, I am sure if Shelvey the clogger but relatively decent passer was given those chances to find James in that space he would be trying those passes without thinking

Just wait for Siggy to get sent off. Why...

A completely defensive orientated bench shows our lack of depth.

The master plan was to keep Tosun as a back up striker when Kean went on loan. Now he’s getting the bullet we don’t have any back up strikers now. For a team with aspirations this season of a CL finish that’s not really good enough.

Balance isn't right in this team. We should be all over Newcastle.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Come on lads. 3pts is all that matters.

 

[Tin-Tin]

We love a backwards pass dont we

 

[riddick]

We really play some awful football this year but it's okay because it's Carlo.

 

[Dixieslaces]

Come on Everton

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I think Bruce got the better of Ancelotti that first half.

 

[bluelife]

Worst performance of the season 1st game against Newcastle - 50% better that half - will be 1000% better this!
